Originally founded as a separatist church community calling itself Westbury to distinguish itself as being west of Waterbury, in 1780, it officially separated itself and was renamed Watertown. It soon became the crossroads for a number of early highways, providing access to the smaller settlements of the north western end of the state with scheduled train trips between Watertown and Waterbury. John Trumbull, poet of the Revolutionary War, who was also a lawyer and judge, was born here in 1750. Watertown has been home to a number of well known companies. Princeton Mills, which produced the first high-napped fabric used as imitation fur was founded here. Hemminways, a company that made silk spooled thread originated in Watertown, plastic shatterproof dinnerware was first made in Watertow...

FHA Mortgages On Verge of Being More Expensive and Tougher to Get FHA may tighten homebuyer requirements with plans to Raise Credit Score Standards, Reduce Seller Concessions, Increase MI Premiums and Increase Down Payment Requirements in reports by the Washington Post and Mortgage News Daily (12/2/09). Many new home buyers who could not come up with a big down payment have looked to the Federal Housing Administration as a premier financing resource.

Now, these attractive FHA-insured mortgages are on the verge of becoming more expensive and tougher to obtain.  Housing and Urban Development Secretary Shaun Donovan told the House Committee on Financial Services that FHA is studying new policies to improve the quality of its cu...

Jimmy’s of Watertown, CT     Not to knock more popular establishments like Dunkin Donuts or IHOP, but seriously, they are a dime a dozen. While they may have great selections of breakfast items to choose from, they are too ubiquitous and lack a certain…charm.   There aren’t too many places where I would go out for breakfast, since the local Howard Johnson’s restaurant shut down about a decade ago. Even Friendly’s doesn’t cut it (although the family has other ideas).   A friend of mine took me out to   Jimmy’s of Watertown   last year…and I fell in love with the place just like that. So much so, that whenever I have needed to have early morning meetings, Jimmy’s of Watertown   is the place that I have recommend ed for anyone to go for a power breakfast.   Jimmy’s of Watertown has great f...
